Steeleye Span – Today In Bethlehem lyrics
[Verse]
Come all with singing, come all with singing
To the place where Christ lies
For there in Bethlehem, there in Bethlehem
You'll find a manger
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
[Verse]
What have the wise men, what have the wise men
Laid before his cradle?
Gold, frankincense and myrrh, frankincense
All for a king's adoring
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
[Verse]
Here are the shepherds, here are the shepherds
With a lamb to give him
Angels have told them, come from the hillside
Meet the tiny stranger
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
[Verse]
There lies the mother, her babe adoring
Joseph watches near her
Watches the Christ child, watches the Christ child
The world's redeemer
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
[Verse]
Come all with singing, come all with singing
To the place where Christ lies
For there in Bethlehem, there in Bethlehem
You'll find a manger
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
Come all with singing, come all with singing
To the place where Christ lies
For there in Bethlehem, there in Bethlehem
You'll find a manger
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
[Verse]
What have the wise men, what have the wise men
Laid before his cradle?
Gold, frankincense and myrrh, frankincense
All for a king's adoring
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
[Verse]
Here are the shepherds, here are the shepherds
With a lamb to give him
Angels have told them, come from the hillside
Meet the tiny stranger
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
[Verse]
There lies the mother, her babe adoring
Joseph watches near her
Watches the Christ child, watches the Christ child
The world's redeemer
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
[Verse]
Come all with singing, come all with singing
To the place where Christ lies
For there in Bethlehem, there in Bethlehem
You'll find a manger
[Chorus]
Christ child of story is born in glory
Wise men adore him, beasts kneel before him
Shepherds singing, praying, stars on high obeying
Oh, what wonders, wonders to see
